No it is not, but it is however the largest fish in the sea. It is still considered a shark even though its large size and therefor a fish. Whales are a completely different species and not considered a fish. Now the fastest shark is the short fin Mako, clocked at only 32 mph, but has been said to swim at speeds of over 60 mph. The fastest marine animal would be the Sailfish, but again in is only clocked at 68 mph. It could in fact go much faster than that.

Oh yes. A Basking Shark is set on permanent cruise control.
Because it IS concidered a shark.....wouldn't that make the WHALE SHARK the slowest swimmer sharks?
a whale
the largest fish species is the whale shark which has been found to have grown to 41 and a half feet.
When a whale eats a shark or a shark eats a whale
Nahim
They have shark tails. If they have shark tails then they'd be catagorized for a shark. They are called a whale shark because their big like a whale and shark because it is a shark (tail)
The Whale Shark?
The Mako is the fastest shark alive. Traveling in a pack of 5-7, this is one of the most deadly sharks.
im not sure but i think the record for the fastest bear swimmer is a polar bear
It is a shark that looks like a whale. It is also the biggest fish.
No the bottlenose dolphin is not the fastest swimmer out of the dolphins the orca dolphin is the fastest dolphin out of all the dolphins.
